Topic: Policenauts



  
 Policenauts - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Policenauts (ポリスノーツ) is a Japanese adventure game written and directed by Hideo Kojima and developed and published by Konami.
This confusion is probably derived from a phrase used to promote Policenauts in a trailer, which describes the game as "The next generation of Snatcher".
One of the five "original cops" which comprised the Policenauts.

A great game like Policenauts is sure to succed in the US.
Yeah we need these games here since I consider Snatcher to be one of my favorite games of all time and I hear that Policenauts is better in everyway.

 NodeWorks - Encyclopedia: Meryl Silverburgh
Meryl first appeared in Kojima's sci-fi adventure game Policenauts in 1994, but she is much better known for her appearance in Metal Gear Solid in 1998, which made her into a reccurring character in the Metal Gear series.
Despite the similar appearances and coinciding backstory, the MGS and Policenauts versions of the character are considered to be separate characters (presumably the same character in alternate dimensions or even descendants from each other) due to the discrepancies between the timeline in both games.
Meryl is voiced by Kyôko Terase (also known as Megumi Terase) in the Japanese games, while Debi Mae West (aka Mae Zadler) played her in the English-dubbed Metal Gear Solid games.

 IGN: The Policenauts E-Mail Campaign
Policenauts is getting re-released in Japan (most likely for the last time) in a few weeks and the game is fresh in their minds, now would be a good time to show Konami of Japan directly that consumer interest is still there.
This was actually a success, as Konami of America discussed localizing the game with Konami of Japan, but Hideo Kojima said that he didn't want to bother with this older title.
What is kind of irritating is that now he is working on Twin Snakes, a game the whole world has already played, while a masterpiece like Policenauts remains unreleased in the West.

The five best have been chosen, and thus, the "Policenauts" are born.
The only shame is that this great game was never released stateside.

Snatcher is one of my favorite games ever, and I went so far as to buy the Japanese Policenauts game, despite not understanding a word of it.
Snatcher >> Policenauts is an absolute essential to anyone who played either game.
It's music like this that makes you remember what an awesome game Snatcher was in the first place (and if you think I'm giving excessive praise, trust me, I'm not).

 TNL Forum - Policenauts
In the year 2013, he and four other cops (including his LAPD buddy Ed Brown) are chosen to become the Policenauts, an elite force of space cops assigned to protect the people of Beyond Coast (a space colony).
We're mainly doing this since KCEJ is now releasing the original PS version in Japan as part of the PSone Books series and since the game is still fresh in their mind, we can probably convice them easier.
However, the game is played from a point 'n click interface instead of being menu-driven.

 TNL Forum - Policenauts (Saturn Version)
The PSone books reissue will probably be the last version of the game for awhile and if we don't get that one, we probably won't get it at all.
I would have imported the game, but the best part about Snatcher was the storyline and with the language barrier and all, I opted not to buy it.
Like all of Kojimas' games, the story is very deep and involving and includes little details all around that fully flesh out the world of Policenauts, making you believe the world exists.

 Policenauts finally coming to the US? - Gaming Age
One game that many gamers were looking forward, to that never actually made it to the US, was Snatcher and it's pseudo-sequel, Policenauts for the PlayStation and Saturn.
I still rank Policenauts not being released in the US as one of my biggest gaming disappointents ever, and from time to time I have wished that Konami would reconsider.
Yes, those days are definitely behind us, but there are still a large handful of gamers that refuse to let sleeping dogs lie.

Before Metal Gear Solid catapulted him to stardom, Hideo Kojima honed his cinematic sense of game design with Snatcher on Sega's Mega-CD format.
Few games of this type are successful, admittedly, but Kojima's skill as a director is evident in Policenauts' absorbing, twisting plot.

 Xbox Addict Asylum - View Single Post - Policenauts (Hideo Kojima) for Xbox?
They're urging everyone to email them and demand that they release it for the U.S. Meryl from Metal Gear Solid is in it too (the game's supposed to take place like 5-10 years after Metal Gear 2).
The Xbox needs more games - I know that it's supposed to get a ton of quality games by this holiday season, but just think about what having a Hideo Kojima creation that would be an exclusive to the Xbox could do for the machine.
Go to webcrawler.com, and look up Policenauts, one of the listings there will provide you a link to the Official Policenauts homepage that has Konami's Email address.

 Sega Saturn: Information From Answers.com
After another third place turnout during the holiday season in 1997, a number of third party publishers started cancelling titles, as a result many games planned for a U.S. Saturn release were cancelled including renowned titles such as Policenauts and Lunar The Silver Star Story.
As a result, many Japanese developers saw little to no reason for Sega to rush another platform into the market and in the process effectively killed the Saturn which had a large user base and many projects under development.
A chain reaction of cancellations rushed through the Saturn market transforming a seemingly promising 1998 schedule of North American releases to a small handful of titles including the aforementioned Panzer Dragoon Saga, Burning Rangers, Shining Force 3, and Magic Knight Rayearth -- the only third party released game that year.

After further poor sales throughout 1997 many games planned for a western Saturn release were cancelled, including highly anticipated titles such as Sonic X-treme, Policenauts and Lunar The Silver Star Story.
